Easy Eggless Chocolate Donuts Recipe

Sometimes, Wednesday morning calls for an Eggless Chocolate Donut… maybe two!

Last week I had to bring to my daughter’s school a treat to share with the whole class. I didn’t want to bring cupcakes again. I mean. Everybody loves cupcakes but something different would be great. So I dedicated a couple of days to develop this recipe.

The Eggless Chocolate Donuts were a BIG success on the preschool party, so much so that teachers asked me for the recipe.

I love that they are baked, which helps to cut calories, and guilty if I eat more than one. I assure you that one will not be enough.

Yes… they’re that good! A truly a piece of chocolate heaven.

The texture was perfect; fluffy and moist, and taste…oh boy! Chocolatey, rich and delicious! They are truly a piece of heaven. They’re also magic because they will disappear before your eyes!

My Top 5 Secrets for Eggless Baking Success

Bring back your passion for baking, even if you cannot use eggs!

  1. Preheat oven to 350º F (175º C). Spray 2 donut baking pans with baking spray with flour.
  2. In a large bowl combine the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl whisk together, the milk and vinegar. Let it rest for 5 minutes to thickens. Add yogurt, oil and vanilla; whisk to combine.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet until evenly combined with no lumps. The batter will be smooth and pourable.
  5. Place the batter into a piping bag. Pipe the batter into the prepared donuts baking pans until about 3/4 full.  Bake for 10 – 12 minutes and cool on a wire rack.

TIPS TO MAKE EGGLESS CHOCOLATE DONUTS

  • Have all the ingredients at room temperature. This helps ingredients mix better.
  • Before filling the pan, make sure you have coated it with non-stick spray. Every time.
  • To fill the donut pan cavities, use a piping/pastry bag. You can also scoop the batter with a spoon and fill the pan if a pastry bag is not an option.
  • Make sure the donuts are completely cool before glazing.
  • Keep these donuts in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.

  • 3/4 cup (150 gr) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (60 gr) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • A pinch of salt

  • 4 ounces (115 gr) semi-sweet chocolate
  • 1 3/4 cups (245 gr) powdered sugar, sifted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray with nonstick spray a donuts baking pan. Reserve.
  • Combine in a medium bowl the flour, sugar, cocoa baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  • In another bowl mix milk, vinegar, yogurt, oil and vanilla extract.

WHAT CAN I USE IF I DON’T HAVE A DONUT PAN?
You can make a little ball with foil and parchment paper. Place the ball in the middle of a muffin pan cavity. Pipe the batter, using pastry bag or a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off, around the ball. Make sure to coat the foil with baking spray very well before adding the batter.
 
HOW TO EASILY FILL A DONUT PAN
Use a piping bag to fill your pan. It is tricky to spoon batter evenly into a donut pan – and nearly impossible with a mini donut pan. Piping the batter in with a pastry bag or a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off will save you a lot of time and frustration.

    Hi. Instead of adding vinegar to milk, can I just use buttermilk? Then, how much should I use buttermilk?
    Thanks

      Hello Allana! If you prefer you can omit the corn syrup. The glaze will be a little bit less thick and not that shiny, but still delicious. Thanks for your interest in my recipe. Please come back and let me know how you like it. ?
